Abstract

Sequence-discriminative training of deep neural networks (DNNs) is investigated on a 300 hour American English conversational telephone speech task. Different sequence-discriminative criteria ndash;- maximum mutual information (MMI), minimum phone error (MPE), state-level minimum Bayes risk (sMBR), and boosted MMI ndash;- are compared. Two different heuristics are investigated to improve the performance of the DNNs trained using sequence-based criteria ndash;- lattices are re-generated after the first iteration of training; and, for MMI and BMMI, the frames where the numerator and denominator hypotheses are disjoint are removed from the gradient computation. Starting from a competitive DNN baseline trained using cross-entropy, different sequence-discriminative criteria are shown to lower word error rates by 8-9% relative, on average. Little difference is noticed between the different sequence-based criteria that are investigated. The experiments are done using the open-source Kaldi toolkit, which makes it possible for the wider community to reproduce these results.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
